Property Description

ENJOY THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS with this lovingly maintained home that offers a country-like setting right on the edge of town. Situated on a beautiful, well-landscaped lot, this property has been thoughtfully cared for and improved by the same family for an incredible 62 years. This home offers approximately 1,966 square feet of living space, with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 1 half bath. A spacious main level family room provides excellent flexibility and is counted as a bedroom, offering options to suit a variety of needs. Numerous upgrades, improvements, and additions have been made over the years, both inside and out, reflecting the pride of ownership throughout. A finished sunroom provides a bright and inviting space to relax and enjoy the views of the beautifully landscaped grounds, with convenient access to the concrete-covered patio—perfect for outdoor entertaining or quiet evenings. The partially finished basement adds even more usable space and includes a family room, office, workshop, half bath, and utility area. There is plenty of room for hobbies, projects, storage, or additional living space. One of the property’s truly special features is the expansive detached garage and workshop, originally built in 1975. This one-of-a-kind structure has seen numerous improvements over the years, including a durable metal roof, and offers an abundance of space for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, or a serious workshop. An extra-long metal shed behind the garage provides even more storage for all the extras. The main house roof was completely torn off and replaced in 2024, providing an important recent improvement and added peace of mind. After 62 years of family memories and meticulous care, this special property is ready for its next chapter. With its spacious home, versatile living areas, exceptional garage and workshop, abundant storage, and beautifully landscaped setting, it offers a rare combination of character, functionality, and a true feeling of home. Let’s make your dream come true too!
